Well, I feel I'm left with no rhyme or reason why Garza completely shut down the best offense in the league last night on the road. He's got great stuff, but he's never done it before and he'll more than likely never do it again. I just happened to be there when the stars aligned. Apparently I'm in need of a serious vacation. :nuts:
I feel the A's have a very favorable situation right now and you really won't ever get a better value on them the rest of the year (if there is such a thing). White Sox struggle in the Coliseum (6-28 in the last 34 meetings in Oakland), and Tschida is the biggest homer ump around almost. Home team is 22-7 in Tschidas last 29 Saturday games behind home plate and the home team is 18-4 in Tschidas last 22 games overall. Smith had success with him behind the dish IN CHICAGO winning 2-1. He did that up against all odds, it would be bittersweet if he can't do it with the odds in his favor. I hate to make generalizations, but Smith is a very serviceable lefty and the White Sox are 2-9 in their last 11 road games vs. a left-handed starter. Danks on the other hand appears to be taking a 2nd half dive like he did last year. As bad as they are now, the A's are still over .500 at home, and have now lost 8 Saturday games is a row. They were 6-5 in the 11 Saturday games before that losing streak. If Smith can hold on to a lead for the A's, the bullpen is a monster once again with Ziegler as an anchor.
